An ideal gas (1.82 moles) undergoes the following reversible Carnot cycle. (1) An isothermal expansion at Thot=850K from 3.20L to 20.40L. (2) An adiabatic expansion until the temperature falls to 298K. The system then undergoes (3) an isothermal compression and a subsequent (4) adiabatic compression until the initial state is reached. a.

B.1 This question concerns the use of different working substances in an engine 2018 (a) Carbon monoxide (CO) and ethene (C2H4) are gases with the same molecular mass: how do you expect their heat capacities to compare, and why? A reversible heat engine involves one mole of diatomic ideal gas cycling around four states labelled a,b,c & d where a is the state of highest pressure. The cycle comprises two isotherms (a-b, c-d) and two isochores (b-c, d-a). [Note: 'isochore'...
